11 Check the specified tire infla-
tion pressure.
Tire inflation pressure is specified
on the label on the driver’s side pil-
lar as shown. ( P.426)
12 Start the hybrid system.
( P.170, P.172) 13To inject the sealant and
inflate the tire, turn the com-
pressor switch on.
14Inflate the tire until the speci- fied air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will spike to
between 44 psi (300 kPa, 3.0
kgf/cm2 or bar) and 58 psi
(400 kPa, 4.0 kgf/cm2 or
bar), then gradually
decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire inflation

3947-2. Steps to take in an emergency
pressure about 1 to 5 min-
utes after the switch is turned
on.
Turn the compressor switch off and
then check the tire inflation pres-
sure. Being careful not to over
inflate, check and repeat the infla-
tion procedure unt il the specified
tire inflation pressure is reached.
The tire can be inflated for about 5
to 20 minutes (depending on the
outside temperature). If the tire
inflation pressure is still lower than
the specified point after inflation for
25 minutes, the tire is too damaged
to be repaired. Turn the compres-
sor switch off and contact your Toy-
ota dealer.
If the tire inflation pressure exceeds
thespecified air pressure, let out
some airto adjust the tire inflation
pressure. ( P.395, 426)
15 With the compressor switch
off, disconnect the hose from
the valve on the tire and then
pull out the power plug from
the power outlet socket.
Some sealant may leak when the
hose is removed.
16 Install the valve cap onto the
valve of the emergency
repaired tire.
17 Attach the air release cap to
the end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not
attached, the sealant may leak and the vehicle may get dirty.
18Temporarily store the bottle
in the luggage compartment
while it is connected to the
compressor.
19To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, imme-
diately drive safely for about
3 miles (5 km) below 50 mph
(80 km/h).
20After driving, stop your vehi- cle in a safe place on a hard,
flat surface and reconnect
the repair kit.
Remove the air release cap from
the hose before reconnecting the
hose.
21Turn the compressor switch
on and wait for several sec-

onds, then turn it off. Check
the tire inflation pressure.
If the tire inflation pressure is
under 19 psi (130 kPa, 1.3
kgf/cm2 or bar): The punc-
ture cannot be repaired. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
If the tire inflation pressure is
19 psi (130 kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm2
or bar) or higher, but less
than the specified air pres-
sure: Proceed to step 22.
If the tire inflation pressure is
the specified air pressure
( P.426): Proceed to step
23.
22 Turn the compressor switch
on to inflate the tire until the
specified air pressure is
reached. Drive for about 3
miles (5 km) and then per-
form step 20.
23 Attach the air release cap to
the end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not
attached, the sealant may leak and the vehicle may get dirty.
24Store the bottle in the lug-
gage compartment while it is
connected to the compres-
sor.
25Taking precautions to avoid sudden braking, sudden
acceleration and sharp turns,
drive carefully at under 50
mph (80 km/h) to the nearest
Toyota dealer that is less
than 62 miles (100 km) away
for tire repair or replacement.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell the Toy-
ota dealer that the sealant is
injected.
■If the tire is in flated to more
than the specifi ed air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the
valve.
2 Install the air release cap to the
end of the hose and push the
protrusion on the air release cap
into the tire valve to let some air
out.

3967-2. Steps to take in an emergency
3Disconnect the hose from the
valve, remove the air release cap
from the hose and then recon-
nect the hose.
4 Turn the compressor switch on
and wait for several seconds,
and then turn it off. Check that
the air pressure indicator shows
the specified air pressure.
( P.426)
If the air pressure is under the des-
ignated pressure, turn the compres-
sor switch on again and repeat the
inflation procedure until the speci-
fied air pressure is reached.
■After a tire is repaired with the
emergency tire puncture repair
kit
●The tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter should be
replaced.
●Even if the tire inflation pressure is
at the recommended level, the tire
pressure warning light may come
on/flash.
WARNING
■Do not drive the vehicle with
a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire.
Driving even a short distance with
a flat tire can damage the tire and
the wheel beyond repair.
Driving with a flat tire may cause a
circumferential groove on the side
wall. In such a case, the tire may
explode when using a repair kit.
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and
flat area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the
area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven.
After the vehicle has been
driven, the whee ls and the area
around the brakes may be
extremely hot. Touching these
areas with hands, feet or other
body parts may result in burns.
●Connect the valve and hose
securely with the tire installed
on the vehicle. If the hose is not
properly connected to the valve,
air leakage may occur as seal-
ant may be sprayed out.
●If the hose comes off the valve
while inflating the tire, there is a
risk that the hose will move
abruptly due to air pressure.
●After inflation of the tire has
completed, the sealant may
splatter when the hose is dis-
connected or some air is let out
of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure
to repair the tire. If the proce-
dures not followed, the sealant
may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it
is being repaired, as there is a
chance of it bursting while the
repair operation is being per-
formed. If you notice any cracks
or deformation of the tire, turn
off the compressor switch and
stop the repair operation imme-
diately.
●The repair kit may overheat if
operated for a long period of
time. Do not operate the repair
kit continuously for more than
40 minutes.

When trouble arises
WARNING
●Parts of the repair kit become
hot during operation. Be careful
when handling the repair kit
during and after operation. Do
not touch the metal part around
the connecting area between
the bottle and compressor. It will
be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed
warning sticker to an area other
than the one indicated. If the
sticker is attached to an area
where an SRS airbag is located,
such as the pad of the steering
wheel, it may prevent the SRS
airbag from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid
sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a
low speed. Be especially careful
when turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle d oes not drive
straight or you feel a pull
through the steering wheel, stop
the vehicle and check the fol-
lowing.
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130
kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or less,
the tire may be severely dam-
aged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emer-
gency repair
●A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a sharp object such
as nail or screw passing through
the tire tread.
Do not remove th e sharp object
from the tire. Removing the
object may widen the opening
and disenable emergency repair
with the repair kit.
●The repair kit is not waterproof.
Make sure that the repair kit is
not exposed to water, such as
when it is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly
onto dusty ground such as sand
at the side of the road. If the
repair kit vacuums up dust etc.,
a malfunction may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with
the bottle vertical. The kit can-
not work properly if it is laid on
its side.
■Precautions for the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source
should be 12 V DC suitable for
vehicle use. Do not connect the
repair kit to any other source.
●If fuel splatters on the repair kit,
the repair kit may deteriorate.
Take care not to allow fuel to
contact it.
●Place the repair kit in a storage
to prevent it from being exposed
to dirt or water.
●Store the repair kit in the tool
tray under the d eck mat out of
reach of children.

3987-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Stop the vehicle in a safe
place on a hard, flat surface.
 Set the parking brake.
 Shift the shift lever to P.
 Stop the hybrid system.
 Turn on the emergency flash-
ers.
NOTICE
●Do not disassemble or modify
the repair kit. Do not subject
parts such as the air pressure
indicator to impacts. This may
cause a malfunction.
■To avoid damage to the tire
pressure warning valves and
transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid
sealants, the tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter may not
operate properly. If a liquid seal-
ant is used, contact your Toyota
dealer or other qualified service
shop as soon as possible. After
use of liquid sealant, make sure to
replace the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter when repair-
ing or replacing the tire. (
